Abstract: This chapter addresses opportunities to apply experiential learning in higher education for students to gain a deeper understanding of sustainability and corporate social responsibility, all while ensuring they are equipped to be the next generation of responsible business leaders. WikiRate, a crowd-sourced public platform and research tool for company sustainability information, is introduced as a student engagement project and an example of experiential learning. It engages students to learn about the UN Sustainable Development Goals and how companies respond to challenges of sustainable development through a unique and hands-on learning experience using technology and real-life data. It analyses the various ways the WikiRate project is used and provides practical advice and recommendations for future use in higher education curricula.
